Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 1003

Chapter 1003 I Demand You Marry Me

In other words, Faceless has already harbored intentions to kill me. I had hoped that by getting rid of Kurt, Zoey, Sofie, and the others, we could finally enjoy some peaceful days. Now, looking back, I realize how naive I was. Even if I refrain from provoking them, they would still gather around me like relentless flies. My connection to Artemis ensures that we can never lead an ordinary life like everyone else.

While Bailey was lost in thought, two bodyguards dressed in black could be seen standing on a nearby watchtower, their backs to each other, diligently observing the activities in their surroundings.

One of them cast their gaze upon the couple embracing in front of the flowerbed.

So, your weakness is Luther, huh, Bailey? Well, that's good to know. For years, I've been fretting over how to deal with you. But you were always too perfect with no loopholes for me to exploit. Now that you have a vulnerability, everything becomes much easier. If I can't kill Luther, I'll take him over. Either way, I bet you'll be worn out, won't you? Without your sturdy shell as a shield, all you can do is watch as I peel your skin off you.

The next morning, Simon and Catherine quietly returned to the manor.

Since Eunice had used a sedative fragrance on Cameron, a substance that even Bailey couldn't neutralize, their only hope now was to rely on Catherine.

To prevent Eunice from finding out about Catherine's return and possibly acting rashly, only Bailey was informed when Catherine came back.

Inside the guest room, Bailey stood by the bed, leaning over to examine the boy lying on it.

“The acupuncture session was brief, and it didn't cause any fatal damage to his leg muscles or meridians. However, it's impossible for him to get up anytime soon. He will require a gradual and patient rehabilitation process,” Bailey explained.

Upon hearing this, Catherine, who was standing at the end of the bed, let out a sigh of relief.

It's good that they didn't inflict irreparable damage on him. With Bailey overseeing his care, I believe that Harvey will be able to stand on his own again.

“I heard Cameron was drugged by Eunice. Should I go and help him out?” she asked.

Bailey nodded. “The news of Kurt's demise hasn't reached Eunice yet, but it's only a matter of time. Once she discovers Kurt's fate, her immediate concern will likely be that her cover is blown. In her panic, she might take drastic actions against Cameron, causing irreversible harm and leaving us with no means to undo the damage.”

Catherine strode toward the door. “I'll go find Cameron right away and identify the specific stupefying drug he's been drugged with.”

Bailey called out to stop her. “Hold on. Let me divert Eunice's attention first before you proceed.”

Half an hour later, Eunice left the villa. Cameron wanted to follow her, but she stopped him.

Fearing that pushing too hard might make her lose control of her emotions, Cameron could only watch as she went alone into the backyard.

Eunice had barely left when Catherine arrived at the door, accompanied by Bailey.

Cameron didn't particularly like Bailey, especially after the latter had forgiven Artemis for his actions that night.

“What are you doing here? Weren't you the one always defending that scum, Luther? If you like him so much, why don't you just stick with him and spare me your presence?” he snapped.

Bailey gritted her teeth, seriously considering delivering a punch that could knock him out cold.

However, the realization that he was currently under the control of Eunice's stupefying drug forced her to suppress her anger. She knew that even if he was beaten to a pulp, it wouldn't help the situation.

“Cameron, are you sure that it was Artemis who seduced Blaze, and not the other way around?”

Cameron's handsome face darkened instantly, his eyes flickering with rising hostility.

The moment he let his emotions slip, Catherine quickly discerned the kind of stupefying drug he had fallen under.

She lowered her voice and said to Bailey, “Distract him for two minutes. I'm going to the garden to gather some flower pollen to prepare the antidote.”

“Got it.”
